Addington selections – 30 September 2026

Harness analyst best tips:

Best Bet: R4  Peraki Lad

Best Value: R5 Here Comes Marty

Race 1

Lady Toni (1)

Changes stables after three career starts and gets the ace draw. Improvement would put her right in contention.

Speakeasy (3)

Has been racing consistently and produced another useful effort at Orari. Looks one of the strongest winning chances.

Tamsin Trouble (4)

Fought on well to earn her first placing last start. Building some useful form and can feature again.

 

Race 2

Bay Breeze (7)

Has shown plenty of promise at the trials. Wide draw makes the debut tougher but looks capable of featuring.

Waterfall Bay (4)

Returns after being given time to mature and has won a trial. Looks well placed to make a strong return.

Captain Tui (3)

Didn’t have everything go his way on debut. Returns from a break with a handy draw and deserves another chance.

 

Race 3

Putere Boy (3)

Has been knocking on the door and was brave from a wide draw last week. Better alley makes him hard to beat.

Delightful Dreams (9)

Gets another awkward draw but has enough ability for this company. Needs the right trip to get into the finish.

Tempo Warrior (1)

Went close on Sunday and now switches back to the mobile from the ace. Should get every opportunity.

 

Race 4

Peraki Lad (12)

Two solid performances since returning and looks ready to peak. Second-row draw is difficult but he can overcome it.

Rogue Wave (6)

Should improve after his debut effort at Orari. Needs another step forward but has scope to do better.

Foreman Fox (3)

Has shown enough recently to be competitive and should find a handy position. Worth including in the multiples.

 

Race 5

Here Comes Marty (1)

Good effort from the second row two starts ago and now gets the ace. Looks an attractive each-way chance.

Miracle Memphis (3)

Forget the latest run when galloping after building a consistent form line. Can bounce back from the good draw.

Melton Magnate (14)

Continues to race honestly and produced another useful effort last start. Tough draw but capable of running into the money.

 

Race 6

Allets (7)

Returns after a lengthy break following some useful northern performances. Has competed in better company and warrants respect fresh.

Rapid Response (6)

Continues to race consistently and overcame a slow beginning to place last week. Looks a major winning chance.

Sweet Willow (1)

Gave a good sight in front last week and gets another favourable starting position. Can take plenty of catching.

 

Race 7

Florence The Machine (2)

Finished strongly after being held up last week and went close to winning. Nicely drawn and looks hard to beat.

Aradne (5)

Had excuses last week and is better than that performance suggests. Needs to produce her best but can feature.

Brian Beatt (6)

Produced a promising effort after a long break last week. Should improve with that run and looks a solid top-three chance.

 

Race 8

The Bettor Major (8)

Won strongly at his latest appearance and has enough ability for this field. Wide draw means he will need some luck.

Matai Harry (6)

Controlled proceedings when winning last week. Steps into a tougher assignment but arrives in good form.

Foveaux Gambler (1)

Improved at his second run back and now gets the ace draw. Could be the improver at longer odds.
